Note: This is a braindump, not a TODO, nor a roadmap. Just a loose collection of ideas for future releases of dmmdb.

All should be encoded with 1:1 pixel ratio and progressive scan

Support for 16:9 and HD is a good thing as it is a default feature nowadays in any cheapo camera, phone devices.

Always set to 640px of width regardless of content. Which means that:

HD/720p is meant to be played in FS anyway, no need to have a bigger player for the page.

==== Default and Fall-back back-end ===- Only two back-ends are needed to cover almost all situations and simplify maintenance:

default is HTML5 <video> tag
fall-back is a GPL flash player (flow player is the most advanced but their GPL license is funny)
